Rationale
The site plan which was produced is a scaled drawing which shows the structures and the uses
which are proposed for the given site. The site plan generated includes the information
concerning the landscape features of that given site. The site plan produced intends to show the
intended land use which relates to the features of the site and all the neighborhood. The
administrator in charge of zoning will be able to review the site plan to assure that the
proposed office block meets the standards of the zoning code for the district where it is
located in1. The zoning administrator will also verify that the development will be sufficiently
severed with the necessary public facility such as water, electricity, emergency services, and the
sewage line. The site plan generated will review the process will be designed in a way to protect
the landowners and it is in their best interest to comply with the procedures.
The floor plan generated gives one a bird's eye view of the office block to be constructed. The
plan is a scaled diagram of the rooms of the office building. The floor plan produce presents the
relationship between the furniture, the room, spaces and at the same time shows the
measurements for the long things.
The floor plans generated were able to turn the ideas before the design into visuals which can be
easily interpreted and understood by other, and with that, it was possible for the adjustments to
be done by the client since the client was able to see want is proposed on paper and make all the
amendments accordingly. This greatly reduced the hassles and ensured that the project was
completed successfully. Hence creating the floor plan also assisted in the decision making the

process for choosing and purchasing of the material which is required for the construction of the
office block.
The schedule of work was prepared to ensure that the construction of the office block will be
completed within the given timeframe and within the stipulated budget. The schedule of work
greatly helps to outline the pace at which the project will be carried out. The schedule of work
will greatly aid in defining the methods and the sequence in which the materials are going to be
put in place. When preparing the schedule of work for the construction of the office block, the
overall scope of work was taken into consideration as well as the connections between the
different components to developed a construction schedule which will work effetely for all the
members of the project team.
The outline of the bill of quantities which was prepared will help the tenders in the computation
of the construction costs for the construction of the proposed office block. All the works and
materials that will be required for the implementation of the office block were quantified before
the preparation of the bill of quantities. The outline of the bill of quantities which was prepared
will assist in providing a fair and precise system for tendering. It will also provide an extensive
and clear statement of the work which is to be carried out and a reliable base for the budget and
the accurate cost reporting . This enables the preparation of the cash flow forecasts and it
provides a basis for the evaluation of the variations, the preparation of the interim payment and
the final account regarding the construction of the project.
The allocation of the spaces within the office block was guided with the relationship of the given
rooms. All the rooms were located depending on the relation of the activities which were taking
place in the given room. The architectural details which were produced were aimed at giving
more focus on the areas which might be complex during the construction stage. Due to that, there
